Can someone help me with the below question???

Answers

Answer:

so 2a+3b=±13

Step-by-step explanation:

4a²+9b²=97

ab=6

2a+3b=?

by using formula

(a+b)²=a²+b²+2ab

(2a+3b)²=(2a)²+(3b)²+2(2a)(3b)

(2a+3b)²=4a²+9b²+12ab

putting values

(2a+3b)²=97+12(6)

(2a+3b)²=97+72

(2a+3b)²=169

taking square root on both sides

√(2a+3b)²=√169

2a+3b=±13

i hope it will help you

Answer:

2a+3b = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this formula

[tex](x+y)^2 = x^2+y^2+2xy[/tex]

Where,

x = 2a and y = 3b

Putting in the above formula

=> [tex](2a+3b)^2=4a^2+9b^2+12ab[/tex]

Putting  4a²+9b² = 97 and ab = 6

=> (2a+3b)² = 97+12(6)

=> (2a+3b)² = 97+72

=> (2a+3b)² = 169

Taking sqrt on both sides

=> 2a+3b = 13

Answers

Answer: y = 1/2x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

#4 We are going to use slope intercept form, (y = mx+b)

1. The line crossing the y-intercept at (0,-6)

2. The slope is 1/2 (increasing by 1 then over 2 --> RISE OVER RUN)

3. Make the equation: y= 1/2x - 6

Answer: 3 . y = -1/3 + 4/3   4. y= 1/2x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

3.   In the first graph  they have the coordinates,  (-2,2)  and (4,0). We have to solve for the slope and the y-intercept in other to write and equation.

To find the slope we have to find the change in the y values  and divide it by the difference in the x values.

2-0 = 2

-2 -4 = -6

2/-6 =  -1/3  Now we know that the slope is -1/3  so we need to  find the y-intercept.

2= -1/3(-2) +b   where be is the y intercept.

2= 2/3 + b

-2/3  -2/3

b= 4/3  

Now we could write the equation as  y= -1/3 + 4/3  

4. The same with number 4.  

We will find the slope and the y intercept by using some points on the number line.

(0,-6)  This already have the y-intercept graphed so we will need to just find the slope.

(0,-6)

(4,-4)  

-6 - (-4) = -2

0 - 4 =  -4

-2/-4 = 1/2

Equation: y = 1/2x  -6

Answers

Answer:

280 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

The lateral area of this prism consists of seven rectangles, each one with dimensions 4 feet by 10 feet.

The area of one of these rectangles is:

[tex]A = base * height = 4 * 10 = 40\ ft^2[/tex]

Then, the area of the seven rectangles is:

[tex]Lateral\ area = 7*A = 7*40 = 280\ ft^2[/tex]

So the lateral area of this prism is 280 ft2.

A student walk 60m on a bearing of 028 degree and then 180m due east. How is she from her starting point, correct to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer: she is 215m from her starting point

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram representing the situation is shown in the attached photo. Triangle ABC is formed with AC representing her distance from her starting point.

Angle B = 28 + 90 = 118°

To determine AC, we would apply the law of Cosines which is expressed as

a² = b² + c² - 2abCosA

Where a,b and c are the length of each side of the triangle and B is the angle corresponding to b(AC). Likening the expression to the given triangle, it becomes

AC² = AB² + BC² - 2(AB × BC)CosAC

AC² = 60² + 180² - 2(60 × 180)Cos118

AC² = 3600 + 32400 - 21600Cos118

AC² = 36000 - 21600(-0.46947156)

AC² = 36000 + 10140.59

AC² = 46140.59

AC = √46140.59

AC = 215 m

A company makes 140 bags.

47 of the bags have buttons but no zips.

48 of the bags have zips but no buttons.

22 of the bags have neither zips nor buttons.

A bag is selected at random.

What is the probability that the bag has buttons

Answers

Answer: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total bags (U) = 140

Number of bags with both button and zip:

(48 + 47 + x + 22) = 140

117 + x = 140

x = 140 - 117

x = 23

Therefore, probability that bag has button :

Total Number of bags with button:

(Bags with button alone + bags with both button and zip)

(47 + 23) = 70

Probability = (required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

P(bag has button) = (number of bags with button / total number of bags)

P(bag has button) = 70/140 = 0.5

P(bag has button) = 0.5

-5(x - 1) = 2x - 7x + 5

Answers

Answer:

This is true! 1x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's rewrite the question again.

-5(x - 1) = 2x - 7x + 5

So we will solve from left to right.

-5(x-1) <- In here, we cannot add a variable to a whole number. So, we simply multiply -5 by x and -1.

-5(x - 1) = -5x+5

2x - 7x + 5 <- Here, we can subtract 2x-7x. They are both variables. But, we cannot add 5 to a variable.

2x - 7x + 5 = -5x+5

Now, here is the equation that we have so far.

-5x+5 = -5x+5

+5x        +5x

----------------------

5=5

-5 -5

0=0

So in here, we can have anything. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 100, anything. So, the answer is:

A large rectangle is made by joining three identical small rectangles as shown.
The perimeter of one small rectangle is 21 cm.
The width of one small rectangle is x cm.
x cm
Work out the perimeter of the large rectangle.
The final line of your answer should be of the form,
Perimeter of large rectangle is ... cm

Answers

Answer:

35 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the image attached, the A large rectangle is made by joining three identical small rectangles,

The width of one small rectangle is x cm and the length of one small rectangle is 2x cm. Therefore the perimeter of the small rectangle is given as:

2(length + width) = Perimeter

2(2x + x) = 21

2(3x) = 21

6x = 21

x = 21/6 = 3.5 cm

x = 3.5 cm

From the image attached, the width of the large rectangle is 2x (x + x) and the length is 3x (2x + x). Therefore, the perimeter of the large rectangle is:

2(length + width) = Perimeter

2(3x + 2x) = Perimeter

Perimeter = 2(5x)

Perimeter = 10x

Perimeter = 10(3.5)

Perimeter = 35 cm

Find the volume of this square
based pyramid.
10 in
12 in
[ ? ]

Answers

Answer:

480 in.^3

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of pyramid = (1/3) * (area of base) * height

Since this pyramid has a square for the base, the area of the base is

A = s^2, where s = length of the side of the square

volume = (1/3) * s^2 * h

volume = (1/3)(12 in.)^2 * (10 in.)

volume = (1/3)(144)(10) in.^3

volume = 480 in.^3

The volume of the square-based pyramid is 480 cubic inches as per the concept of the pyramid.

To find the volume of a square-based pyramid, we can use the formula:

Volume = (1/3) x base area x height.

In this case, the base of the pyramid is a square with a side length of 12 inches, and the height of the pyramid is 10 inches.

First, we calculate the base area of the pyramid, which is the area of the square base:

Base area = side length x side length

                = 12 in x 12 in

                = 144 square inches.

Now, we can substitute the values into the volume formula:

[tex]Volume = \frac{1}{3} \times 144 \times 10[/tex].

Multiplying these values, we get:

[tex]Volume = \frac{1}{3} \times1440 {in}^3[/tex]

Simplifying the expression, we have:

[tex]Volume = 480\ in^3[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function :

[tex]h=-16t^2 + 36t + 10[/tex] ......(1)

On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 4, 1) and (0, 3). Everything below and to the right of the line is shaded. Which linear inequality is represented by the graph? y ≤ 2x + 4 y ≤ one-halfx + 3 y ≥ One-halfx + 3 y ≥ 2x + 3

Answers

Answer: [tex]y \leq \frac{1}{2} x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function has a positive slope, that means the y value is increasing with respect to x. As you go down the x-axis, the y value will continuously increase.

First you want to plot the two sets of coords that they gave you, or else you wont know what the line looks like. Or, you could visually do it in your head. We're going down -4 on the x-axis and down 1 on the y-axis. Then for our second coords, we are going to 0 on the x-axis, then up 3 on the y-axis.

You could plot this for yourself, but im going to do it in my head for simplicity. We also need to find the slope of this function in order for us to find the y-intercept. The slope is change in y divided by the change in x. Subtract the initial position from the final position.

3 - 1 = 2

0 - (-4) = 4

2/4 = 1/2

The new equation is:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x+b\\plugin(0,3)\\3=\frac{1}{2} (0)+b\\b=3[/tex]

where t is the time in months since city council raised property taxes.

Find the interval on which the population was 40,000 or greater

Answers

Answer:

t ≤ 4.24

Step-by-step explanation:

P(t) ≥ 40000 implies

500t/(2t²+9) ≥ 40000

Multiplying through by t², we have

500t ≥ 40000(2t²+9)

500t/40000 ≥ 2t²+9

Collecting like terms

0.0125t  ≥ 2t²+9

0  ≥ 2t²+ 9 - 0.0125t

2t²+ 9 - 0.0125t  ≤ 0

2t²- 0.0125t + 9 ≤ 0

Using the quadratic formula,

[tex]t = \frac{-(-0.0125) +/-\sqrt{(-.0125)^{2} - 4 X 2 X 9} }{2 X 2} \\= \frac{0.0125 +/-\sqrt{(0.00015625 - 288} }{4}\\= \frac{0.0125 +/-\sqrt{-287.9998} }{4}\\= \frac{0.0125 +/-16.97i }{4}\\=0.00313 + 4.24i or 0.00313 - 4.24i[/tex]

The factors of the equation are (t - 0.00313 -4.24i) and (t - 0.00313 + 4.24i)

So, (t - 0.00313 -4.24i)(t - 0.00313 + 4.24i) ≤ 0

(t - 0.00313)² - 4.24² ≤ 0

(t - 0.00313)² ≤ 4.24²

taking square-root of both sides,

√(t - 0.00313)² ≤ √4.24²  

t - 0.00313 ≤ 4.24

t ≤ 4.24 + 0.00313

t ≤ 4.24313 ≅ 4.24
